Hello, I remember I also had this error. "www.syndic8.com" thing came from emacs itself. It is a fallback or something like it (look at "M-x find-function nnrss-find-rss-via-syndic8"). I don't recall in details, but I think I faced this error when I wanted to use Atom feeds in gnus. So I used the same code from the wiki to convert Atom to RSS as you do, and it worked for me. Make sure you have "atom2rss.xsl" as described in the wiki. Good luck! P.S. It is probably of no interest for you, but a code I use for converting Atom to RSS is placed here: https://github.com/alezost/emacs-utils/blob/master/utl-gnus.el#L199-L238 And in my emacs config I have: (setq utl-atom2rss-file "/path/to/atom2rss.xsl") (advice-add 'mm-url-insert :after #'utl-convert-atom-to-rss) -- Alex
